Beta upload Mark Gilmore Sun, 30 Jul 2000 22:41:50 -0400

http://www.usit.com/omnip/ecsb.zip (BETA) has been uploaded,
and incorporates the changes below.

Note: I have made some enhancements to the internal logic
which supports SPEAK->MESSAGES. I tested it pretty thoroughly
and expect no problems.

I will be uploading a new LINUX beta tomorrow
(with sound and TTS support).

	4.4.006 (07/30/00)

    50)	If a TV-show matches multiple favorite records (in TVLFAV.TXT),
	then TVL4 (which generates the TV-GUIDE) will now list the
	"most important" processing code found ('R' being the most
	and 'f' being the least).

    51)	A bug has been corrected which could cause screen-captures to
fail.

    52)	I discovered that if our JAVA classes (e.g. Ecsio.class) dumped
	status info (to the JAVA console) when connected to the Internet,
	that it slowed the init procedure to a crawl. So these dumps will
	now occur only when debug is on.

    53)	A bug has been corrected which would cause an erroneous error
	message ("Access violation") to be reported when logging out of
	a WWW session.

*   54)	In the "TVL DL" Event of EXAMPLE.CFG, I have corrected a
	recently-introduced bug:
	This line:
		If	TVL Enabled		Is Not		False
	Should read like this:
		If	TVL Enabled		Is		False

    55)	Given the facts that Netscape-5/LINUX does not support scrolling
	drop downs and that the beta version Netscape-6/LINUX is EXTREMELY
	sluggish, I have eliminated the use of drop downs in all ECS
	editing web-pages (ECS now uses the selection frame as is used
	for the Group monitor page).

    56)	If you request an ECS WWW page when NOT logged in, and an empty
password
	is applicable to that session, then ECS will now log you in and return
	that page (rather the main page).

    57)	A bug has been corrected which prevented the Message window's
	"DEL REDUNDANT" button from working.

    58)	The Ecsio.class applet now disconnects from the IP address when
	ECS exits (under LINUX, the address was not freed on a refresh).
